Dark Devotion is a 2D pixel art souls like game, which is a lot slower paced than other games in the genre. It’s great to look at, has a ton of fantastic boss encounters, and a deep combat system that’s immensely fun to engage with. It’s also really tough. You will die a lot, lose your stuff and get back out for the next run. But it’s really fun doing so and I rarely had a dull moment.
Pros:
Great combat
Gorgeous visuals
Fun boss fights
Challenging
Cons:
Movement feels a bitt too slow for my taste
Score – 7/10

Explore the secrets of a mysterious fallen temple and put your Templar faith to the test in Dark Devotion, where no sacrifice is too great in praise of your God. Measure your devotion and your bravery by journeying into deepest darkness for answers to questions that will challenge your very existence.
Dark Devotion features a richly detailed, immersive narrative that unfolds a sombre tale of your Templar religion’s irresistible calling. Every encounter challenges your fortitude, piety, and conviction as you move deeper into your cursed pilgrimage. Spanning four unique worlds, each with their own incredibly detailed environments, you’ll wield dozens of weapons in your quest to discover the Temple’s secret: all the while assailed by dark enemies and devious bosses whose core mission is to destroy your soul and damn you forever.
